Blue Knob Photos

great day! from the condo , to the staff everyone is super nice and the snow!!!! Blower pow! get here! great glades ! It is worth the drive!

future knobbers

Good times nice shred

Lots of wind today so there are ice patches forming here and there but slopes were in overall good condition. Agree with poster below; snow patrol was great!

Went up yesterday. Snowblowers were blasting all day. The runs got increasingly icy and sketch as the day went on. Not crowded at all! Well worth it for the price!

Not a bad day overall but starting to thin out bad in places. I was going to ski tomorrow but I think I will call it a season! Can't wait till next year!

Great spring skiing at the "Knob" this weekend!

Great spring ski at the "Knob" conditions really good!

Fun and fast day of runs on the slopes of blue knob, but icy on steep trails and glades roped off due to ice and visible bare ground.

New snow reports were false. While there was some there are icy spots on every run.

Great day to be at BK! Packed powder and deserted slopes made for some great skiing!

Everything is open and with epic conditions at Blue Knob. Fri snowstorm and snow all the next day made Sat a massive POW day, but did get a bit lumpy in the afternoon. Sun was velvet smooth and then snowed again. Some major ice on the steep terrain. Road conditions are treacherous so better have all our four wheel drive, but worth it! and little to no lift lines on a holiday weekend too. Loved it!

Stay on the blues ... The blacks are very icy !! But over all to be expected for the rain last week .... Pretty good other then that

I love snowboarding!!! ; )

Blue Skies!

Beware- slopes are VERY icy. A fair amount of grooming, but the temp dipped so low last night that, in short, everything is very hard and frozen. Only the blues & greens are open thus far, & it will only be with significant accumulation that the blacks will open- grass is still visible on them. Terrain park opened at around 3 pm today, but there is only one rail, & no jumps or other equipment.

This place has not changed in 30 years. In serious need of upgrades. Lacks snow making. None made all day & maybe 1/2 the trails open. Should have been in much better shape.

Not a bad day considering the warm weather we went through. Had some lift issues early but got everything going before noon. Blue knob has got awesome terrain, just wished management would be more consistent.

what a great day :)

The lodge, lifts, the way the glades are now is what make BK so special. We were there yesterday and effin rode that place hard. Nothing but love for the Knob.

BK's verticle is deceiving. Yes, its taller than Snowshoe's main basin, but not the Western diamonds. but BK's middle section is so flat it's like you're skiing two different hills. If BK cleaned up some of their gladed runs, improved their chair lifts, and moderinized their lodge i would go there more often.

Not sure how you can compare Snowshoe's 250+ acres to BK's 100. But IMO, both beat 7S. Cant beat BK's 1/2 lift right now. Great conditions today. Tons of powder all over the place. Short lines on the two lifts running. But man do those lifts scare me.

"good friday" - tons of pow

snow

super day

BK was absolutely amazing today! 15"+ of powder as result the entire mount was skiable(even the unmarked stuff). if you didnt make it up today you definatly want to go tomorrow!

30? and powder beats 75? and sunny any day. please stay open longer

this was about two Sundays ago. best conditions to ride yet! lots of fresh snow that day!

Still good coverage on greens, blues, High Hopes, and what I could see of Extrovert from the safety of the lift. Snow was smooth and quick early Sunday and was slushy by the end of the day. Did not see any bare spots on the trails, but did see spots here and there where the ground was showing through. Did not ski the glades myself, but could see from the lift and adjacent trails that most of them looked rideable so long as you watch for bare spots. With temperatures expected to fall again this week I expect they'll meet their projection of being open till the 24th. However, I'd make my way up there this week if you're hoping to get another decent day in on the knob before the season's end just to be sure.

First time at bk today 3/08/13. Great coverage on groomed trails, a little thin in glades. Place was empty this morn but got busier after lunch. Great hidden gem in pa. Def gonna go back next year. They need to upgrade lifts though. They were old and slow.

Snow is smooth as silk!
Skiing is incredible!!!!!!!!
